Welcome — what this site is for

2026 · 06 · 02  · 

This is the first entry. A short note on why I’m writing here.

I keep coming back to the seam — the place where the body, the model, and the question nobody is asking yet sit next to each other. Most of my work is in that seam: AI products that I help shape, research that watches people use them, and notes I take when something surprises me.

For a while I kept those notes in three different apps and never read them back. This site is an attempt to read them back. I’ll write here roughly once a week — sometimes essays, sometimes small observations, occasionally just a question I’m holding for the season.

What you’ll find

  • Essays. Longer pieces, usually about the seam between AI, attention, and the body. Sometimes about being a non-engineer who builds things anyway.
  • Field notes. Smaller — a sentence, a paragraph, a question from a user interview I can’t stop thinking about.
  • Builds. Things I’ve made: PLANTEA (a wellness brand I ran at 22), AI product cases from a Korean telco, and the prototypes I’m shipping now.

What you won’t find

A list of skills. A timeline. A CV. Those exist elsewhere, and they’re easy to write but boring to read. I’d rather show the questions than the badges.

If something here lands for you, I’d love to hear about it.
